So my younger brother is over the top with his Christmas preparations. I refer to him as an honorary Griswold around this time of year. But he cannot compare to this guy from our sister town, Dorchester South Carolina.

– I honestly can’t believe how much I miss the NHL, I’m a Bruins fan, but more importantly i’m a fan of the NHL. It’s upsetting to all sports fans when greed takes a hold of both sides. The NHL was down and out for a while. They lost their ESPN coverage, which is huge, they were surviving on the vs. channel and occasionally an NBC game. a few years ago someone over at NHL headquarters had tremendous idea let’s play hockey outside on new years day. Wow! it was a real game changer, who could forget the Bruins playing the Philadelphia Flyers at Fenway. It was awesome to watch. This years game was supposed to be the Detroit Red Wings vs. the Toronto Mapleleafs outdoors at the Michigan football stadium, which holds 100,000 people. More importantly Hockey on new years day was beginning to be thought of as football on Thanksgiving. I certainly hope they resolve this dispute. Heck, make a call to Bob Kraft, that guy is the king deal maker.

-The Patriots are playing the Houston Texans tonight on Monday night football. All of the so called “experts” have been saying all season long that the Texans are the best team in football. This should be a great game, but please don’t believe the hype that this will determine anything about the playoffs. It’s just a regular season game. I still remember losing to the St. Louis Rams towards the end of the 2000 season, and we all know how that worked out in the super bowl. Or better yet, when we went 16-0 in the regular season. Unfortunately, we will never forget what happened then. So, just enjoy the game. Win or lose, it will be up to our defense on how far we go in the playoffs.

-The Celtics are moving in the right direction.They have a championship caliber team and we will get Avery Bradley back this week. Avery may not be a household name but trust me, he’s a big part of this team going forward. We all know about Pierce, Garnett and Rondo, but Jeff Green is playing great right now. Don’t forget he had heart surgery a year ago. Danny Ainge is becoming one of the best GM’s in all of sports. The true test for Danny will be when Pierce and Garnett retire, but i’m pretty confident the celts won’t have another 20 year drought.

-If you think it’s getting cold out there, try to remember it’s only 63 more days until spring training.

-A big Dot Rat congratulations goes out to Tom and Gisele on the birth of their daughter Vivian. The little bundle of joy is now, as Warren Buffett once said, part of the lucky sperm club.

– Lastly, when you’re out Christmas shopping spending ridiculous amounts of money on everything. Try to remember the less fortunate out there. Sadly to say, but their will be kids who wake up Christmas morning with out anything. So try to give a few bucks to a charity, or buy a toy and donate it to your local church. It’s the right thing to do. By all means enjoy your holiday’s everyone, spread your cheer, be happy but most of all call a cab or have a friend drive if you’ve been drinking.

It’s said to be one of the most stressful jobs on the planet. Lord knows I would probably need a flask to deal with it. But our ATC “Boston John” in the tower over @ Logan keeps it light. Turns out he’s quite a ladies man!

So this comedian decided to mess with a couple that was heckling him. They took off to the bathroom and he takes one of their coats and decides to go through it for a few laughs. It gets real when he finds a bag of fuel ……

So this is the released footage of the Boylston Street station trolley crash. Now I’m sure it scared this living sh*t out of everyone on the trolley…but as you can see it was merely a fender bender. When the impact happened the doors on the trolley that got hit were still open. Watch homeboy do the Southie shoulder roll out of the trolley….get up like he’s perfectly fine. Then he realized “oh shit…its a payday” and then carefully lay back down on the platform to fake an injury. I gotta admit, P.K. Subban would be proud. One problem, the genius left his Mac Book and crayons on the trolley. Einstein tries to crawl over to grab his sh*t, realizes he blew his cover (for the second time) then walks away. Guess he will not be seeing Dr. Winteroff this year.

100 bucks says this guy is related to this other fraud in Taiwan. You have to love technology!

So someone decided to start posting Wikipedia articles to YouTube. Not really a bad thing, especially when you may have a number of users who may be blind and need the audio feed. All good right? Whats up with the computer generated voices though? They couldn’t spring a few bucks to have Mike Rowe do the audio? Probably not possible with the amount of content they have. I suppose it’s pretty cool to be significant enough for Wikipedia to enshrine your story….but does your story have to be told by your Tom Tom?

Here’s a wiki article on a fellow Dot Rat…. Kay Hanley. She would probably get a kick out of this.

Apparently some boys got together at an undisclosed location for a little NHL action. Looks like they coined it the Sweeney Cup….hey you gotta do something fill the void the Bruins left. I gotta admit I’m a little heated that a fellow Dot Rat was getting is digital ass whipped.

Where were all the Dot Rats? Is this how we represent? This sh*t is embarrassing and we need to rectify it immediately. Someone needs to step up and regulate because I can’t suffer through another f*cking Southie chant! I would jump in this arena but these thumbs are for NHL 94 only!

All BS aside….this looks like a good time….booze and video games do go well together! I miss these days!!
